They're going into the woods/woulds. What they would have done, what they wished for (a friend of mine who was in a production of ITW swore that if he ever heard the opening, "I wish" or the "Into the Woods" theme one more time, it would be too soon).

And the issue of Carmen the Witch has resurfaced. The question of Carmen reclaiming her beauty, I think more than one poster has commented on Carmen looking, younger, more beautiful, lately, as the Witch does in the course of ITW. Will Carmen also lose her power(s) as the Witch does when she reclaims her sexuality?

It's also playing into the fairy tale aspect of Danny and Michelle, the white knight rescuing the captive/sleeping princess, to go the woods (Snow White/Sleeping Beauty anyone?)
